Abstract

4-Chlorobenzoic acid reacts with silver oxide and 1-(2-aminoethyl)piperidine to give a dinuclear silver(I) complex, [Ag2(C7H4ClO2)2(C7H16N2)2]. The complex was characterized by elemental analysis and X-ray diffraction. The complex crystallizes in the triclinic space group P−1 with unit cell dimensions a = 6.8550(10), b = 8.7370(10), c = 13.859(2) Å, α = 73.213(3), β = 87.945(3), γ = 77.050(3)°, V = 774.09(18) Å3, Z = 1, R 1 = 0.0386, and wR 2 = 0.0791. The dimeric Ag complex is located on an inversion center. The Ag atom in the complex is three-coordinated by two N atoms from two 1-(2-aminoethyl)piperidine ligands and by one O atom of a 4-chlorobenzoate ligand, forming a triangular coordination. In the crystal structure, the molecules are linked through intermolecular N–H···O hydrogen bonds, forming chains running along the a axis. The complex shows high cytotoxic property to both normal and carcinoma cells.
